Pentecostal Migrants in Secular Sweden

A multidisciplinary project investigating three Pentecostal migrant congregations in the Greater Stockholm region.

Influences and Challenges

Migration is one of the most pressing political and social issues in contemporary Sweden. With migration, religion has also become more visible. How does religious migration influence the Swedish secular society?

This multidisciplinary project approaches this question by investigating three Pentecostal migrant congregations in the Greater Stockholm region. What is the role of religion for these migrants and what are the challenges they encounter in secular Sweden? The project is financed by the Swedish Research Council between February 2019 and Mars 2022.
